I would have thought it would be too cold for scorpions to survive. Very interesting!

Hi Glenn.
It's the yellow tailed scorpion and not that venomous. If you were unlucky and got stung then it's nothing more dangerous than a bee sting.The dockyard wall where they live is long and south facing so even in winter it remains relatively warm. There are plenty of cracks for them to nest and there aren't any real predators so they thrive. Estimates are as high as many thousands..

I live on the Isle of Sheppy Kent situated in the river Medway estuary just before in meets the Thames. Known now for it's nature reserves it was at one time strategically very important with a deep water naval dockyard.
